Re: Freq.

A good engineer knows it is going to rain, snow, fog, whatever and would plan for it. I have set up 20 mile links with towers at 105ft using Proxim gear. Make sure you compensate for the rain fade and other problems and it is fine.

This is really old news. Wireless links like this have been used for decades.

Wow, I hate to guess what they used to cost back then!
Looks like 60 GHz starts at $14,000 and 74 Ghz is $45,000!! And I thought the 8K units were a lot
I don't know if that is per link, or radio but it's still helluva expensive! I really don't think Sprint can afford that right now..

You can't make all the people happy all of the time. But it should be common sense to shoot for the majority.

If sprint can come up with $40,000,000,000 to buy Nextel, I don't think $45,000 per location to get return on their WiMAX investment for backhaul will phase them.
